Stratified Medicine: A New Challenge for Academia, Industry, Regulators and Patients
by Thomas Bieber
The ultimate goal of stratified medicine is to develop the ‘magic bullet’ – to link drug response with genetics and/or a biological profile and to provide a safe and efficacious drug for a distinct patient population. This new medical paradigm creates difficulties as well as opportunities for all stakeholders. In this book on nine chapters, Thomas Bieber highlights some of the key challenges for academia, industry, regulators and patients emerging in this highly dynamic field.
